This operator was a port of the old ToSphere button that worked only around the cursor.
To Sphere transform (Alt-Shift-S) can already do it around cursor if pivot is set to that, can be used interactively and work on more data types, so this is unneeded.
as does only edges and individual faces extrude (individual vert
extrude already did).
Note that I need to port this, after we all figure out how to handle
operators with variable transform follow-ons.
I also implemented the merge->collapse function, which is currently
accessable under ctrl->v, Bmesh Test Operator. I still need to
implement the other merge modes, and properly hook everything into
the merge menu tool, which I plan on doing soon (tomorrow hopefully).
The cool thing about the collapse tool, is not only does it handle (all)
UV layers, it handles vcols as well. To do this, I had to add a few math
functions to the customdata API, which seem to be working well.
* 3D view Mesh menu works again, but incomplete.
* Add Properties and Toolbar to 3D View menu.
* Added "specials" menus back, vertex/edge/face and general.
* Various fixes in existing mesh operators, some were not working.
* Add MESH_OT_merge.
* Merge all subdivide ops into MESH_OT_subdivide, subdivide code
changes to make smooth + multi give good results.
* Rename all select inverse ops to *_OT_select_inverse.
* Fix "search for unknown operator" prints at startup, and some
warnings in py code.
* Don't run .pyc files on startup.
* Remove unused image window header C code.
* Rename BIF_transform/retopo.h to ED_transform/retopo.h
for consistency.
* Move MESH_OT_duplicate_add to editmesh_add.c.
* Remove some code from BIF_gl.h which is not needed there
anymore.
* Context panel now draws without header, with arrows, no scene name.
* Softbody vertex group search popup.
* Improve names for autogenerated shortcut keys in menus.
* Make most Select menus in the 3D view header work.
* Fix armature border select selection syncing.
* Add POSE_OT_select_constraint_target,
MESH_OT_select_by_number_vertices, MESH_OT_select_vertex_path.
* Merge mesh select similar into one operator.
* Don't give MESH_OT_select_random Space hotkey.
* Add DAG_object_flush_update to many mesh edit tools, not calling this
will crash with modifiers.
* RNA_def_enum_funcs for dynamic enums in operators, but not very useful
without context yet.
* Fix refresh issue with image window header + editmode.
* Fix drawing of shadow mesh for image painting.
* Remove deprecated uiDefMenuButO and uiDefMenuSep functions.
* Remove keyval.c, code is in wm_keymap.c already.
* Rename WM_operator_redo to WM_operator_props_popup.
RNA
* Added the relevant active_*_index properties, with proper
get/set/range, updates and notifiers.
* Context.tool_settings.
* ToolSettings.vertex_group_weight.
Operators
* MESH_OT_uv_texture_add/remove
* MESH_OT_vertex_color_add/remove
* MESH_OT_sticky_add/remove
* OBJECT_OT_vertex_group_add/remove/assign/remove_from/
select/deselect/copy/copy_to_linked
* OBJECT_OT_shape_key_add/remove
UI
* Some updates and cleanups in list template code.
Known issue: when going in & out of editmode, uv textures and vertex
colors dissappear. I thought me->edit_mesh would be NULL when not in
edit mode but it is not?
Added SpaceLogic, to restore the old logic buttons into.
In future it can be used for a more advanced logic editor, with
states, behaviour, whatever. We'll see!
This commit only adds the backend for new space. Committed this
now as reference for when we need another space type. It's still
not well plugin-able (dynamic space types), but my idea is to just
have a new SpacePlugIn for this, with a neat small API to define
all relevant callbacks.
Also note the icon for the spacetype is wrong still.
BMO_ITER macros to make defining iterator
loops easier. Moved some files around.
And also made the editmesh conversion functions
tesselate ngons to triangle fans, since it's
more stable for conversion, and editmeshes are
never displayed to the user anyway. And ported
akey to bmesh.
Next up I plan on adding face iterators to DerivedMesh,
since that's the last major chunk of major refactoring
left, I think, except perhaps the uv editor (at the
moment it's probably close to working, but it's still
converting to editmeshes for everything, which is very
bad).
- use select as a suffix eg UV_OT_loop_select -> UV_OT_select_loop
- Each select all operator was using slightly different wording...
select_all, deselect_all, de_select_all, select_de_select_all -> select_all_toggle
- selection -> select
- POSE_OT_select_connected -> POSE_OT_select_linked to match other operators
- NODE_OT_delete_selection -> NODE_OT_delete since its not used in other operators
- ANIM_OT_previewrange_define -> ANIM_OT_previewrange_set to match other operators
- NODE_OT_fit_all -> NODE_OT_view_all to match other operators
- View2D_OT_* -> VIEW2D_OT_* to match VIEW3D
- View2D_OT_view_downscroll -> VIEW2D_OT_scroll_down more logical
- removed MARKER_OT_mouseselect_extend and made extend a boolean property of MARKER_OT_mouseselect
- MARKER_OT_mouseselect -> MARKER_OT_select
- GROUP_OT_group_remove -> GROUP_OT_objects_remove more logical since its removing objects from groups
- MESH_OT_removedoublesflag -> MESH_OT_remove_doubles
- redundant words MESH_OT_split_mesh -> MESH_OT_split, OBJECT_OT_object_delete -> OBJECT_OT_delete
renamed selection operator properties
extend_select -> extend
column_select -> column
select_children_only -> children_only
... Since these are all in the context of selection operators there is no need for the extra 'select' in the property name.

like so:
[opname] [slotname]=%[format code]
Before it was relying on the input format codes being in the same proper
order as the slots, which seemed like a potential maintainance nightmare to
me. Also the flags for creating buffers from bmop flags or header flags,
now support additional modifiers for combining vert/edge/face inputs.
E.g. %hfvef would accept all geometry with a header flag, and
%fef would accept edges and faces with a certain bmop flag set.
Example from the UI code:
if (!EDBM_CallOpf(em, op, "del geom=%hf context=%d", BM_SELECT, DEL_ONLYFACES))
return OPERATOR_CANCELLED;
(remember EDBM_CallOpf is the UI wrapper for this that does conversion,
error reporting, etc).
On todo is cleaning up/splitting bmesh_operators.h,
since it's kindof a mesh right now. I'm thinking of adding the slot
names in comments next to the slot ids, but I definitely would have to
clean up bmesh_operators.h first, or it'd just be too chaotic for me.
BTW, the operator API should now have enough meta info to wrap with
a scripting language, not that it matters since that's not happening till
much much later.
Also hopefully corrected some SConscripts, fix mostly provided by Elia Sarti,
though I also copied some SConscripts from 2.5 (not sure if doing
so was especially helpful).
Finally, I refactored a few places to use the new operator calling api,
as an example of how this is beneficial.
code, and also because calling operators was such a pain. The basic form of the format
is "opname %[code]", where each % matches to an argument.
The codes are fairly simple:
d - int
i - int
f - float
h[v/e/f] - all verts/edges/faces with a certain header flag.
f[v/e/f] - all verts/edges/faces with a certain flag.
For example:
EDBM_CallOpf(em, op, "dissolveverts %hv", BM_SELECT)
will call the dissolve verts operator.
The relevent functions are:
//calls a bmesh operator, doing necassary conversions and error reporting.
int EDBM_CallOpf(EditMesh *em, struct wmOperator *op, char *fmt, ...);
//execute an operator
int BMO_CallOpf(BMesh *bm, char *fmt, ...);
//initializes but doesn't execute an op.
int BMO_InitOpf(BMesh *bm, BMOperator *op, char *fmt, ...);
//vlist version of above.
int BMO_VInitOpf(BMesh *bm, BMOperator *op, char *fmt, va_list vlist);
Note this system is dependant on getting the slot codes from the argument
order. I'd like to make it better, possibly pass in slot names, but that'd
mean actually giving the slots names (which I can do, but wanted to discuss with
Briggs and others what I have now first).
- Mesh Rip back (Vkey). For those who keep wondering how
it works: just put mouse cursor somewhere close to the
selection, press V and mouse mouse away from it. Feels
like real rip!
- Made extrude sorta work, no menu/options yet though.
But it does transform!
- Added an short event->mval[2] with region coords,
easier coding for the guys :)
- Fill operator standard delivers 'beauty' now
edges/faces,extrudeflag_edgess, not the entire extrude system) with
a bmesh version. This stress-tested the operator api, and I had to
code some new stuff,including:
* An api to iterate over Mapping slots and array slots. It's modeled
after the normal iterator api.
* The ability to copy mapping slots.
* More mapping functions.
* In addition to being able to flag elements in a buffer,
you can now unflag them (much clearer then passing in ~flag
I think).
The extrude edge/faces code has multiple layers. At the top
level is a funtion in editmesh_lib.c, which takes care of selection,
handles mirror modifiers, etc. It calls the extrude operator, which
in turns calls split, which calls dupe/del. Note that split needed
a slot to exclude things from being deleting (e.g. when extruding
a single isolated face).
The basic idea (reflected in original design of split/dupe/del by Briggs)
is to use the split function to do the heavy work of extrude. split spits
out new geometry and mappings from boundary edges, for extrude (it should
also spit out other mappings, but that's for later).
Briggs: you may want to look over this, hopefully I didn't do anything
too evil.
I probably should spend some time going over the 2.5 mesh operators and
cleaning them up, splitting ones that need splitting, etc, and in general
getting them to work properly.
still is mirror transform. This commits adds the remaining operators:
* UV mapping operators (U key menu): cube, sphere, cylinder, etc.
* Hide/Show operators.
And solves most XXX's, including:
* Fix bad includes and calls into space image.
* Aspect ratio correction.
* Create UVs if they don't exist yet on unwrap.
* Assign image to UVs.
* Drawing proportional edit circle.
Edit Mesh: Knife Cut back.
I've put it for now under ALT+CTRL+LMB, modeless direct cutting.
Options for polyline input and snapping is for later. At least
this works cool :)
